Hamster home made cage coating
Hello!
My husbnad built an amazing new cage for our new little Syrian hamster to be but it is built out of plexiglass and I believe pine wood which I know is not safe for these little guys.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can coat the wood with to protect from chewing or ingesting??
It is primarily plexiglass but I was thinking of coating the flooring with the cupboard liners that I can glue down? not sure of the occasional random supportive pieces.
Please don't judge us being newbies....just want to protect these little guys as much as possible!
Cindy

Re: Hamster home made cage coating
Check out this Reddit thread on pine.
In short, the important thing is that the wood has been kiln-dried. If your hamster isn't much of a chewer, using a safe water-proofing treatment, like Plasticote, should be enough.
